You DO know that our government is running out of money, right. Your future is in your own hands.



Rather pathetic, actually.

Its important to know that there is truly one spirit, one force, one consciousness. What do you think of this?

Quoting:



"At one time we existed on Earth in a very high level of awareness that was far beyond anything we can even imagine right now. Because of the particular events that happened between 16,000 and 13,000 years ago, humanity fell from that very high place through many dimensions and overtones, ever increasing in density, until we reached this particular place, which we call the third dimension on planet Earth, the modem world.



When we fell we were in an uncontrolled spiral of consciousness moving down through the dimensions of consciousness. When we arrived here in the third dimension, certain changes took place, physiologically and in the way we functioned in the Reality. The most important change was in the way we utilize prana or the life-force energy of the universe causing us to see through a polarity (good-evil) consciousness. The result of this polarity consciousness has us thinking that we’re inside a body looking out, somehow separated from what’s “out there.” This is pure illusion. It feels real, but there is no truth at all to this perception. It’s merely the view of reality we have from this fallen state.



In the higher-self reality, we literally exist in other worlds besides this one. There are so many dimensions and worlds that it almost surpasses human capability to conceive of it. But right now your third-dimensional consciousness is severed from your higher aspect, so you’re aware only of what’s going on here on Earth. This is not the norm for beings existing in a natural unfallen state. The norm is that beings first become aware of several levels at once, like chords in music,until finally, as they grow, they become aware of everything everywhere at once. The following example is unusual, but it demonstrates what is being talked about.



I’m in communication with someone right now who is aware of many levels at once. The scientists who are studying her are speechless; they cannot understand how she does what she’s doing. She might be sitting in a room, yet she claims to be watching from outer space. NASA checked her out by asking her to “see” a specific satellite and give specific information that could be known only if someone were actually there. She gave them readings off their instruments, which I’m sure seemed impossible to the scientists. She said she was flying alongside the satellite and simply read them. Her

name is Mary Ann Schinfield. She is legally blind, yet she can walk around a room and no one would know that she cannot see. How does she do it?



You presently exist on probably five or more levels. Though there is a break between this dimension and others, when you connect with your higher self you mend that break, after which you start becoming aware of the higher levels and the higher levels start paying more attention to you— communication begins! This connection to the higher self is probably the most important thing that could happen in your life, because you get absolutely clear information on how to proceed step by step through any reality and how to lead yourself back home into the full consciousness of God. When you connect with your higher self, the rest will happen automatically. You will still have to live your life, but everything you do will have great power and wisdom within your actions, thoughts and emotions.



Until the left brain is able to see the unity running through everything, to know that there is truly one spirit, one force, one consciousness moving through absolutely everything in existence—until it knows that unity beyond any doubt—then the mind is going to stay separated from itself, from its wholeness and from the fullness of its potential."

I totally believe in Astral Projection, but I still need official papers released from NASA that this happened. I know there are lots of videos and links out there but certainly, internet is tool of free and unregulated information. Anyone can write anything or say anything.



Any link from any Mainstream will add creditability to the story.



But as far as the above story goes, I totally believe in one consciousness. The concept of this one infinite(I know its an oxymoron but deal with it) consciousness is a subject of discuss in some Vedic sects in India and world. It is called Advaita philosophy and many Hindus believe in that(I am one of them.).



God is said to be Infinite in Vedic texts. And if something is infinite then nothing is within or without that and everything is within and without that. But we are delusional of the reality because of maya(illusion) which is using our physical senses to deceive us. In other words, our physical senses are not perfect and thus we are in delusion considering the physical reality to be the only reality.



Sages and saints in ancient India were able to astral project themselves and experience the universe, may be in same way or different way. Some are still there to do that but they are living in exiles, living in isolation.Its important to know that there is truly one spirit, one force, one consciousness. What do you think of this?
Yes the ancient secret of the follower of life is true . Yes we have one spirit , one force and one consciousness .That is completelly true .

What does men dakka dukka mean?

OK, so yesterday, the Turkish prime minster used this phrase. He was speaking about events in Syria and wanted to address Assad in his own language and said what the Turkish press has transliterated into Turkish as, "Men dakka dukka." It has been translated into English as you reap what you sow as well what goes around comes around. I have two questions



1) Which is the more accurate translation if translating into English?



2) What spelling do you think is more correct when transliterating into English?What does men dakka dukka mean?
1) what goes around comes around as you' ve said

2) I can't help that

    What would be the magnitude required for a news story to interrupt the Superbowl to cover it?

    If the Superbowl were interrupted by the news department in order to cover a major news story, what would be the magnitude of the story in order for producers to decide to interrupt the biggest TV event of the year?



    What would be some examples of such a news event?What would be the magnitude required for a news story to interrupt the Superbowl to cover it?
    --A President, past or present, dies,

    --A major city gets nuked or worse,

    --Aliens show up, and it can't be denied.

    --People actually DO occupy Wall Street--people show up and literally _Seize_ the building or trash the thing,

    --Anonymous wipes out _Google_, entirely, front to back, and then takes over every Nuclear Arsenal on the planet.

    --China does the same as above, and also replaces Facebook with "All your base are belong to us", in even less grammatical Pinyin Mandarin.

    --Saudi Arabia becomes a _free country_ for everyone (not gonna happen).

    --India vanishes entirely from the face of the planet (ditto),

    --Korea becomes one nation (double ditto),

    --AT%26amp;T brings jobs back to the United States (triple ditto)

    --Mexicans give up trying to get in the United States illegally,

    --Conservatives give up their paid-for whack-job and vendetta against the current President,

    --A major nation of the world _forgives_ its U.S. debt to it, entirely, without prejudice, or indeed, even asking for interest payments.



    Something of that nature. It would have to be HUGE and "made of WTF"?
    Pretty big, like a terrorist attack of a country using a nuke on another countryWhat would be the magnitude required for a news story to interrupt the Superbowl to cover it?
    Meteor impact in a major American city

    I got tickets to a sporting event and got tickets printed on regular paper.Is this what tickets look like now?

    I used to get an actual ticket, but this looks like it was printed off the computer and I have never seen this before. I'm just worried that I'll go and not be able to get in.I got tickets to a sporting event and got tickets printed on regular paper.Is this what tickets look like now?
    Contact the support people from where you booked the tickets and ask them. That's the only solution.

    What can I wear to my sister sweet 16 party?

    So I just turned 18, and my sisters 16 is coming up very soon. I hate to say it, but I have never been to a sweet 16, and I rarely go to parties. Im so used to wearing black slacks, dress shoes, and a long sleeve dress shirt (I often roll up the sleeves). I wear that attire whenever I go to a large family dinner or holiday celebration. But to my sisters sweet 16, a very special event, what should I wear? For some odd reason, my sister thinks I will look good in a sweater vest. But what do you think is nice to wear? Also, if I do wear a sweater vest, do I wear a tie or no tie/ jeans or slacks/ etc.?What can I wear to my sister sweet 16 party?
    Honey let me tell you its a party so you have to be dressed like you are going to a party and its not just any party its a sweet 16 and your sisters?? Hmm I would wear a black skirt with a nice dressed shirt and some closed toe heels with a thick heel for more comfort also if you feel uncomfortable showing leg put some black tights on not leggings but like the silky thin kind black is always good:) or a dress nothing too sexy when wearing a dress I would say if you are going to show leg cover up on top here are some cute clothes I found hope I helped oh and also remember accessories:)

    You should go all out. Don't wear only black....you aren't at a funeral and the time for blending into the background is over! Wear a vest, like she wants you to, with a tie to match...only if you find a great one to go with the vest, a vest could also stand alone!

    Really, you could let her or another gal your age pick something out. (Btw,,,Its a great excuse for a date,... to go shopping and lunch!) Nice jeans with a vest and tie looks really good, you don't have to stick with your comfy black clothes! Shave. Remember to get a NICE haircut.....spend a little more, it usually shows. Smell awesome, that IS hugely important! Plus, its a nice thing for you to do as your sister asks for THIS occassion. It'a a special day for her, and with you putting in more effort, I bet it will not go unnoticed!! You will make your sister happy, even buy har a rose, or a favorate flower....thats a nice thing for a brother to do! PLUS...have fun at her party and remember to ask her to dance with you! (no excuses, there are music videos to watch,and they teach dance moves online!) You will never get it back, some memories only have just one potential to make them. Really, when you get older.....like when your own daughter's sweet 16th comes around, it will trigger your happy memory, and you will still get a smile from it, all those years later. (Make sure you loosen up, enough to be fun/funny....but don't ruin it in any way) Have a good time!What can I wear to my sister sweet 16 party?
    if its formal i reccomend a dress with heels but if its not that formal and a bit on the casual side i reccomend jeans with a nice top and a nice leather jacket or a cardigan. To my sisters sweet sixteen i wore a black dress with a red cardigan and red 5cm heels.

    hope i helped :D
